If you require additional support when requesting an Education, Health and Care Needs Assessment:
- have a discussion with the SEN Co-ordinator at your child's school or educational setting about the different options available to support them. If possible, it is best to request an assessment in partnership with the school or setting. It is no quicker to request an assessment on your own, as the local authority will still need to get advice from the school or educational setting
- call the SEN Team on 01225 712620 if you would rather start the process yourself, you're not sure about your options or your child does not attend an educational setting
- You can also find out more about contacting the team by visiting, Contacting the Wiltshire SEND team
- you can get impartial support and advice from Wiltshire Special Educational Needs Information, Advice and Support Service Wiltshire SENDIASS (opens new window) or Wiltshire Parent Carer Council (WPCC) (opens new window).
